Female Arizona Not Eating Yet

[Ladyhawk]

I'm probably just being overly concerned. It hasn't quite been a week, but my female Arizona Mt. Kingsnake has not yet eaten. Probably she simply needs time to adjust to a new home and enclosure, but I'm afraid it might be more than that.

I've been trying to feed thawed. Tonight I got out a knife and performed the grisly task of "braining" a pinkie. She showed zero interest.

I knew the male was ready to feed when he stopped hiding and came out to have a look around. He took a thawed hopper right out of my hand. I have to admit I got a bit of a charge out of that!

The female is much more shy. Most likely she just needs more time to adjust, but I'm worried she may need live prey. Her former owner fed her live hopper mice, but I'd really rather not feed live for a variety of reasons.

Input?
